0.6.1 is a maintenance release that fixes a number of small problems. Everyone is encouraged to upgrade. 0.6.1 also adds a new feature that’s been under development for awhile called heartbeats, which improve dropped connection handling and reduce timeouts. I’ll be writing a post on that shortly.

If you’re using a version of Orbited lower than 0.6.x, this is a great time to make the change, because 0.6.0 marked the change from alpha to beta, with the corresponding stabilization in API and core functionality. Remember to stop by the mailing list, IRC channel (#orbited on freenode or use the LiveDemo), and Trac system to participate in the development process and/or get help with Orbited.
